2016-04-25Remove timestamps from BEAM filesBjörn Gustavsson
As long as anyone can remember, the compilation time has been included in BEAM files (and can be retrieved using Mod:module_info(compile)). The timestamp has caused problems for anyone using tools such as 'cmp' to compare BEAM files or for package managers: http://erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-questions/2016-April/088717.html Rarely has the timestamp been of any use. Yes, sometimes the timestamp could help to figuring out which version of a module was used, but nowadays a better way is to use Mod:module_info(md5). To get rid of this problem, remove the timestamp from BEAM files in OTP 19. Don't add an option to include timestamps. Utilities that depend on the timestamp will need to be modified. For example: http://erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-questions/2016-April/088730.html Instead of using the compilation time, the MD5 for the BEAM code can be used. Example: 1> c:module_info(md5). <<79,26,188,243,168,60,58,45,34,69,19,222,138,190,214,118>> 2> beam_lib:md5(code:which(c)). {ok,{c,<<79,26,188,243,168,60,58,45,34,69,19,222,138,190,214,118>>}} 3>

2016-04-15erts: Add comment about future trace optimizationsLukas Larsson
2016-04-15erts: Optimize tracer reload testLukas Larsson
Without off_heap message queue the GC of the tracer could take very long and thus delay the code:purge which would in turn allow the trace generator to generate a lot of more messages which would make the tracer GC for even longer etc etc. The time taken for the testcase could go up to as large as 10 seconds and use lots of memory.

2016-04-15erts: Silence harmless valgrind warning in dec_termSverker Eriksson
provoked by nif_SUITE:nif_binary_to_term. If we fail to decode an immediate (unsafe atom for example) with a dummy factory then hp and factory->hp will both be uninitialized and valgrind will complain about comparing them.

2016-04-15erts: Remove fake schedule testcaseLukas Larsson

erts_block/unblock_fpe should only be called at entry to/exit from native user code.
2016-04-15erts: Extend process and port tracingLukas Larsson
This commit completes the tracing for processes so that all messages sent by a process (via nifs or otherwise) will be traced. The commit also adds tracing of all types of events from ports. When enabling tracing using erlang:trace, the 'all' flag now also enables tracing on all ports. OTP-13496
2016-04-15erts: Implement tracer modulesLukas Larsson
Add the possibility to use modules as trace data receivers. The functions in the module have to be nifs as otherwise complex trace probes will be very hard to handle (complex means trace probes for ports for example). This commit changes the way that the ptab->tracer field works from always being an immediate, to now be NIL if no tracer is present or else be the tuple {TracerModule, TracerState} where TracerModule is an atom that is later used to lookup the appropriate tracer callbacks to call and TracerState is just passed to the tracer callback. The default process and port tracers have been rewritten to use the new API. This commit also changes the order which trace messages are delivered to the potential tracer process. Any enif_send done in a tracer module may be delayed indefinitely because of lock order issues. If a message is delayed any other trace message send from that process is also delayed so that order is preserved for each traced entity. This means that for some trace events (i.e. send/receive) the events may come in an unintuitive order (receive before send) to the trace receiver. Timestamps are taken when the trace message is generated so trace messages from differented processes may arrive with the timestamp out of order. Both the erlang:trace and seq_trace:set_system_tracer accept the new tracer module tracers and also the backwards compatible arguments. OTP-10267

2016-04-14v3_kernel: Construct literal lists properlyBjörn Gustavsson
Use cerl:make_list/1 instead of a home-made make_list/1 to ensure that literal lists are constructed as literals. In a future release, we would like to forbid in the loader construction of literal lists using instructions like: put_list {atom,a} [] Dst The proper way is: move {literal,[a]} {x,0} Also update the comment about "put_list Const [] Dst" in ops.tab.

2016-04-14Optimize get_tuple_element instructions that target Y registersBjörn Gustavsson
Several improvements in the compiler (e.g. c288ab87fd6) has lead to an Y register being the target for get_tuple_element instructions. Therefore, introduce i_get_tuple_element2y that combines two consecutive get_tuple_element instructions that target Y registers.
2016-04-14Mend beam_SUITE:packed_registers/1Björn Gustavsson
packed_registers/1 may have actually tested put_list/3 instructions with high register numbers at some time. Currently, the compiler will generate code that only uses low register numbers. Totally rewrite the test case. It is difficult to arrange so that put_list/3 uses three high register numbers, so we will use get_list/3 instructions with high register numbers.
2016-04-14Correct unpacking of 3 operands on 32-bit archictecturesBjörn Gustavsson
0a4750f91c83 optimized unpacking by removing a mask operation when unpacking three packed operands. Unfortunately, that optimization is only safe on 64-bit architectures. Here is what happens on 32-bit architectures. The operands to be packed are 10-bit register numbers that have been turned into byte offsets: aaaaaaaaaa00 bbbbbbbbbb00 cccccccccc00 They can be packed into a single word like this: 30 20 10 0 | | | | aa aaaaaaaabb bbbbbbbbcc cccccccc00 If we call the packed word P, the original operands can be extracted like this: C = P band 2#111111111100 B = (P bsr 10) band 2#111111111100 A = (P bsr 20) band 2#111111111100 The bug was that A was extracted without the masking: A = P bsr 20 That would give A the value: aaaaaaaaaaaabb That would only be safe if the two most significant bits in B were zeroes.
2016-04-14Eliminate misleading #ifdef ARCH_64 in beam_opcodes.hBjörn Gustavsson
There is a '#ifdef ARCH_64' beam_opcodes.h, which might make you think that files generated by beam_makeops will work for both 32-bit and 64-bit architectures. They will not. beam_makeops will generate different code depending on its -wordsize option.
